Remplacements

• - The original winner of Miss Italia 1987, Mirca Viola was desthroned few days later after it was discovered that she was married and had a child, and less than 1 month later the final contest was repeated and Michela Rocco di Torrepadula won; But a few months later she renounced her right to go to Miss Universe to compete in Miss Europe 1988 in May, where she won the crown. Due to the scandal with the winners, the Miss Universe Organization took away the licence from the Miss Italia Organizers and a new organization called Miss Universo Campione d'Italia held the Italian Selection for Miss Universe pageant from 1988 to 1991. Simona Ventura who competed at Miss Italia 1986 Pageant, won the first edition in 30 March 1988.

• - Sylvie Bertin refused to compete in both Miss Universe and Miss World pageants. The pageant organizers decided to send her first runner-up, Claudia Frittolini to compete in both pageants instead.

• - Miss Yugoslavia 1987, Matilda Sazdova was a underage before February 1st and was replaced by her Runner up - Alma Hasanbašić.
